Apache
Black Eagle Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Señales de humo te hago
Y la pipa de la paz yo me fumo
Pa' calmarme si no estás

Apache, un pelo negro de azabache
La luna, busca un hueco entre la espuma
De las nubes pa' alumbrarte
Y caminas entre las colinas, y me miras, me miras
Con tus ojos de cristal y como brillan, que brilla
La vela de tu sonrisa pues esconde tu sombra en la oscuridad
Y no te veo, pero te vuelvo a llamar

Señales de humo te hago
Y la pipa de la paz yo me fumo
Pa' calmarme si no estas

Me late, retumbo, me explota el corazón
Y Arde al segundo si esos ojos me vuelven a rozar
Los besos de la paz no se compran matando y matando

Apache, con tus pieles de mapache
Tus plumas, van devorando herraduras
De ese caballo salvaje

Te giras desde la colina y me miras, me miras
Con tus ojos de cristal y como brillan, que brilla
La vela de tu sonrisa pues esconde tu sombra en la oscuridad
Y no te veo, pero te vuelvo a llamar

Señales de humo te hago
Y la pipa de la paz yo me fumo
Pa' calmarme si no estas

Me late, retumbo, me explota el corazón
Y arde al segundo si esos ojos me vuelven a rozar
Los besos de la paz no se compran matando y matando

Y aunque el serif siga hablando a balazos
Zancadillas y tortazos yo te agarro del brazo
Y te saco a bailar en un planeta de borrachos

Vaqueros bien armados que nos cazan
Al lazo condenados a mirar
Y no te veo, pero te vuelvo a llamar

Señales de humo te hago
Y la pipa de la paz yo me fumo
Pa' calmarme si no estas

Me late, retumbo, me explota el corazón
Y arde al segundo si esos ojos me vuelven a rozar

Y saco el hacha de guerra por un beso de esos labios
Le declaro la guerra a un chulo cowboy tejano
Y pa' chula mi lengua que te escupe por bastardo





Los besos de la paz no se compran
